Global reinsurance firm Swiss Re has made Charles Mixon the new Head of Business Development for all insurance-linked securities (ILS) capital raising activities under the Alternative Capital Partners (ACP) division, filling a gap left by the recent departure of Edward Johnson, Artemis has learned. Mixon has a strong background in insurance-linked securities (ILS) and reinsurance linked investments, alongside capital raising, business development and operations for other asset classes. He joined Swiss Re in 2024, stepping into the role of Senior Business Development Manager, Alternative Capital Partners. In that role, Mixon worked on investor relations and capital raising across the Swiss Re ACP range of reinsurance and ILS investment offerings. Mixon has meaningful experience in both capital raising and investment operations within insurance-linked securities (ILS) and is a natural fit to lead business development for Swiss Re’s Alternative Capital Partners (ACP) unit and its ILS fund management operations.
